...and this is where we have to be a bit more creative. Jenny, are you able to supply kits, with or without individual battery cells that could be assembled locally? I'm wondering whether this approach could get past some of the restrictions on weight, energy capacity etc. Of course this would...

Thank you so much for clarifying what I suspected. This is going to be very problematic for the home mechanic or small business here. Somehow there are businesses still able to supply battery packs. Either they have found a loop hole or they are carrying sufficient stock to get them through so...

I read this thread with interest as it differs with my experience with getting a single 48v 17.5Ahr delivered to my home in New Zealand. From my dealings with the Chinese supplier there were resent restrictions placed by the couriers that made it all but impossible to ship here. I was refunded...

Some more detail, cos it relates to comments I've made in various threads... I'm a large rider 1.98 metres 115kg. Bike mods also include a lekkie 42 tooth chain wheel, Tmars suspension seat post, 35 mm handlebars,

I'm in a similar boat to you, aging bad knees and a hill to negotiate to get home at the end of your ride. From my experience, and having had both hub and mid powered ebike's leans heavily towards using a mid drive. The mid drive gearing needs to be set to use the largest cog on the cluster and...

I'm relatively new to ebike riding. Not so for general cycling but it's been a few years. My new ebike playground runs along the coast here in Northland, New Zealand and as such it's pretty hard to ignore the vast open space that our beach offers, irrespective of the tide. Close to that, there...

Hi Plochez, like you, I've recently finished converting my Specialized Hardrock with a Bafang BBS02B 750W 48V and am also having a blast with it. I'm so glad to have used my bike which I already know so well and gave it a new lease of life. Because I did it myself, I've got a good appreciation...

I'm a 60 year old male with a keen interest in cycling since I was a kid. Having recently moved house half way up a large hill, I faced the fact that cycling was just getting too difficult, and age wasn't helping. That was before taking the plunge and converting over my trusty Specialized...
